Wilberforce University [photo] If there is any school that the race should be proud of it is Wilberforce University. Established in 1856, four years before the Civil War, it of course, is the oldest Institution for the higher education of the Negro youth. Founded at the time when it was most needed, it performed a very distinct service in beating a path for the future progress of the race. Wilberforce Uni[versity?] [illegible]ands [illegible] a monument [illegible] the abilities of the Negro's initiative, self control, and cooperation as well as self determination. This is borne out by the fact that of the many institutions of our race, Wilberforce is the largest one which has a Negro President and, further, is owned, controlled and supported entirely by Negroes. Her location adds much to her general usefullness. In the state of Ohio, so very famous for her many schools and high educational standards, in one of nature's most famous beauty spots and health resorts, in the center of a net work of Ohio cities Cincinnati, Dayton and Columbus, all noted for culture among our people is located in this Mecca of Negro education. Wilber[force?] has a very definite plan for th[illegible]ment of our youth. Educa[illegible] fine [illegible] of knowing how to live with and for folks." Therefore in her plan she advocates a trained mind and for this work she has selected a well prepared faculty from the race's best prepared educators, whose training has been received in the leading schools of our country as well as foreign Universities, such as the Universities of Berlin and Jena, Germany. To insure the proper developement and functioning of the mind she advocates [illegible] sound body and to meet this need she has one of the finest, if not the finest, gymnasiums in the country. Wilberforce is awake to the demand for [illegible] in the field for labor, and thus to cope with this demand she advocates trained hand. Along this line [she?] offers courses in Mechanical Engineering, Agriculture, Plumbing and [illegible]ting, [illegible]ed [illegible]nd, under the care of those most interested will naturally result in a true heart, the thing hoped for by Wilberforce in her plan to serve the race. Many are indebted to this institution. Slowly and steadily has the sun of her achievement risen until she has spread her glorious effulgence throughout the wide expanse of the land. Many have been the students whose voices have rung out through her sacred walls, far and wide have the many graduates gone undaunted, fearless, venturesome until there is "no speech nor language where their voice is not heard" all fondly upholding the sacred traditions of their Alma Mater and praying for the soon approach of the day when her standards impregnable shall have been planted on the highest [pinnacle?] of Race Education. [illegible] force Unviersity has been greatly hampered and retarded in her onward progress, not to mention the face that some two hundred or more students have been deprived of shelter. Know of the wonderful plan of this institution, it seems that every race loving man and woman should hear and heed the call of this institution in her attempt to rebuild this dormitory and continue her onward march.

Flack, Critic Dr. Robert L. Oliver, Chaplain The President outlined his policy for the ensuing year's work. Among the most important recommendations were the raising of $1000.00 and the establishment of a Research Laboratory, also the introduction of a Round Table Bureau. Since all of the doctors have had the use of the microscope and X-Ray machines in school it is conclusive thtat our race group will be the direct beneficiaries of the establishment of a Research Laboratory. There will be a call metting within a few days to perfect plans to run health pictures in all of the Colored churches, and appoint the various committees.
